Darius' archers skirt around the gryphon, attempting to keep a distance from the Frenzied Scarab that just popped out of the river. Letting loose with their shafts, they surpass the Drakhirri Lancer's armor and pin him to the ground.

Darius abandon's his warhammer for a nearby lance, mounts a horse, and prepares to charge Ravenbane...

...and even though Darius rolled a 1 for the attack, fumbling his new lance, the resulting crash damage from the horse is 6 after 6 after 6 after 6 . More than enough to overcome Ravenbane's armor and HP!

De-lanced, Darius lifts his empty hands and chants a prayer to the gods of a realm far from Intermediate Terra: Equestria. One of the Great One's hears his call and arrives on the battlefield!

Darius: "Hear my plea; may you bite off the heads of mine enemies, great penis mistress!"

Demigoddess Fluttershy: "You're...going...to...LOVE ME MOAR!"

Sensing that his prayer somehow angered the demigoddess, Darius can only look on in horror as She gives "The Stare" to the unwitting Dragonmage. While "The Stare" often only brings lesser, cuter animals in line, it is significantly more fatal to the mage !

Dreska of Leoncor

"Filthy Cur!" Dreska gives a shout as she bashes junior Smith with her shield; he will need an action to recover from the blow.
